Sophie, Couple, 24-26yrs

Two young professionals about to start their careers in healthcare! Both friendly, outgoing and most importantly clean housemates. Like to play netball, hockey and go to the gym. Both originally from country Victoria so we head back there every few weekends to catch up with family and friends. We enjoy catching up with friends on the weekends.

Amanda, Female, 24yrs

I'm a secondary school teacher, looking to move closer in to the city to avoid a 2 hour commute to work in 2017! I'm also finishing my degree at uni as well as working.
I'm generally pretty quiet and keep to myself, and would sooner choose a night in with wine and Netflix over a party :)

Anne, Female, 35yrs

I am a PhD student who would love to have a clean, organised and quite place to study. Don't watch much TV but don't mind having movie nights, also enjoy a glass of wine and a nice dinner once in a while. I like socializing but at the same time, need my privacy and time alone. Love brunching on weekends. I'm into healthy lifestyle and would like to live with people who have the similar mindset! Just recently started meditation and very new to it. I prefer no dogs in the house. :)

Georgina, Couple, 20-21yrs

We are two funky friends looking to team up with some new pals to form a share house, hopefully in January !
Georgie has been living on campus at Monash for the past three years studying Physiotherapy (gives good massages), and Austin is making the move up to the big smoke from Tassie in 2017 and hopefully going to start studying at uni here too. Georgie also works a few different jobs, and Austin be finding part time employment too.
Georgie and Austin are a couple so would be sharing a room ($$$ off rent!!).
We are all really fun and easy going people, love to have a boogie but (especially Georgie) love to buckle down and get some work done. We are all super clean and have good rental histories and references. We love going on nights out, hanging out at home with some bevs, watching tv and doing all the usual stuff you'd expect.
We hope to find some like-minded folks to hang out with, cook family dinners and have an excellent year together!!

Emma, Female, 20yrs

I'm a 20 year old medical student looking for a place near the city. I'm generally kept pretty busy with study, but I like touristing around Melbourne or going out for lunch, and try to drag myself to the gym at least once a week. Next year I'm more likely to stay in for some Netflix and tea, but I do enjoy going out to bars or having a couple of friends over for drinks.
Looking for a small sharehouse or unit to call home for at least a year. Ideal flatmates are easy going people around the same age, happy to share meals (I hope you like spaghetti!), and will keep up their half of the housework.

Tanvi, Female, 22yrs

Hello. :)
I'm Tanvi, am 22 year-old student completing a Masters of Counselling course from Monash University.
I'm looking for a place (not a shared room; I'm looking for an own furnished room, preferably with an ensuite bathroom) that's preferably somewhere in between uni and the city, and hoping to stay for a minimum of 4 months, starting end of December.
I'm friendly, fairly easy-going and absolutely love to travel. Although I generally love to socialise, I also appreciate some time to myself occasionally. I intend to keep the apartment very neat and tidy, and would like to team up with someone similar in that respect. I enjoy reading, dancing (I do some Latin :)), and cooking (I tend to eat healthy as often as possible, but indulge from time to time). I'm also a big fan of good conversations, about almost anything, and am therefore looking not only for house-mates but for potential friends. :)
Lastly, I'm a huge dog-lover, and although I don't have any, I'd love to share an apartment with someone who does!
Feel feel to send me a message if you know of anything that's suitable.
Cheers!

Todd, Male, 26yrs

I'm a great sociable housemate. I can have a high energy or a very calming influence! A hairdresser by trade. Love to explore place I am living, or also relax and soak up the vibe.
Clean and caring, i want to live in a nice environment !

Kirsty, Female, 40yrs

Hi there I'm Kirsty, a budding writer. Being a drug and alcohol worker pays my rent/bills but I'm making space in my life to spend more time writing and pursuing creative goals. Single, never married, no kids. I'm healthy, balanced, friendly, clean and responsible. I'm funny too. Well, I think I'm funny. I'm into exercise, meditation, writing, animals, cooking, TV series', socialising. I love down time too though and have been known to binge watch and not leave my bedroom for awhile. I don't drink or use drugs. I like to travel and get away for the weekend sometimes. I'm friendly and open but I also like as much space and privacy as the average person and offer the same to others. I earn enough to be fully self supporting and pay my rent/bills.

Tanja, Female, 18yrs

Hey guys, I really need a place to stay! I'm a friendly, ambitious and open-minded person, ready to try new things and meet friends! I need a private room while I work to save up money to travel the east coast. So I can only stay for a couple weeks. I hope you can help me out :)

Billy, Male, 23yrs

Hey! My name is Billy I am looking for a fun, happy, social but mature group of people/person to live with, also really wanting a master bedroom with an ensuite if possible :) love to do things together like cooking, training even cleaning, also dont mind a bbq and a beer every known and then. I am a very outgoing positive person. I am currently studying to become a Youth worker, also working part time.
I enjoy music, I love training also love to be social and interact with people, at the same time I am very respectful of others space, and Like my own privacy.
Very clean and tidy, and like to chip in and help others, if you think i would suit your home, or you would like to start a sharehouse together dont hesisitate to message me and i will get back to you as soon as possible.
thanks
Billy

Hi - I'm Glenn. I have a long history working in the helping type fields such as nursing and psychology with multiple undergraduate and post graduate degrees. I am very caring, empathic, considerate and have always been compassionate towards others, regardless of who they are or where they've been. I guess humility, acceptance and openness are some of my key values/traits and although my path is not the same as others, I love to hear about other people's past experiences and their hopes and visions for the future.
More recently, I have been focusing on my music composing and looking at how I can use my skills to generate an additional income whilst doing something that I have always loved. Initially, I have created alliances with video game developers to provide background music, but I have always wanted the music I write to be more uplifting than to purely motivate people to slay the purple dragon and find the blessed magic brussel sprout (Clearly with that description, I don't play video games - but hey... that is a great idea for a game yeah??)
I'm currently liaising with wedding planners and wedding celebrants to provide personalized music that couples can use as part of their wedding day. Songs that not only express how they feel about each other but promote this love and excitement in others. But, the desire to make people feel special goes much deeper than this.
Last year, a friend was suicidal and in a very bad way. She had several admissions to hospital, and some very intense treatment. It was heartbreaking that she was unable to see just how beautiful and special she is and just how much she is love by those around her. I wrote her a song titled "We love you" which tried to remind her of that fact. (You are welcome to listen to it).
So, I feel passionate about reminding people when they just cant see it - through music - just how important they really are - I hope I can do that more. I'd love to set up some kind of not for profit organisation where I can write individual, personalized music for people purely to help remind them that they are important. I'm leaning towards the name 'Every Note' because when it comes to music, each note works together to create an overall piece of musical truth and beauty. I think that is just as applicable to people. Every person is inherently important and an integral part of the world. Plus, I think music in its various forms, is so influential on people individually, yet at the same time joins our collective souls.
I also LOVE animals - and I have two adorable cats. You don't have to love them - but I could never live with a cat hater. I am their carer, protector, food giver (most importantly) - and they rely on me. Having them is a gift and I don't take that lightly. I need somewhere that they would feel comfortable.
I also enjoy doing woodwork as a hobby - although I'm pretty bloody useless at it - but it doesn't seem to have lessened my enthusiasm for some reason. Not sure why that is.
I pretty much get on with anyone and seem to be able to find something to talk about. I make a point of making people feel comfortable and welcome without being over the top. I'm probably more mature now and settled and stuff and enjoy more quieter times - but I still tend to get excited over someone saying "Hey.... why don't we....." which usually results in a "*#@^ yeah! That is brilliant" I'm very respectful, considerate, empathic and compassionate, and a great listener. But, I'm also sensitive to other people's needs and respect my own and others personal space.
Oh and I also make a point of trying to do volunteer work where I can - that has previously included cleaning out, washing dog yards at the RSPCA, being a welcomer/cuppa person for people attending the Salvation Army who are experiencing difficult times, to try and make them feel at ease, Hon secretary for community support group and I am currently volunteering as Treasurer for a not for profit, community support group.
As a bonus I also come with an unlimited supply of lame jokes and am the person to have on your trivia team if the subject "Hits of the 80's"ever comes up.
Probably crapped on enough.
Cheers
Glenn

Vivienne, Female, 22yrs

Viv here, 22 this year, I'm graduating from monash and will be working as a full time nurse starting next year. I'm a tidy, friendly and fun loving person. I have two lovely cats who are very well behaved. I love binge watching american tv series and movies, so if you're a fan of HIMYM or Harry Potter we'll have a blast. I have a part time job at the moment so I'm mostly not around during the summer but is always up for hanging out with housemates and have a chill night in with good food and good company. Not a huge party person either.
I'm currently looking for a room to let that ACCEPTS PETS and hopefully have hardwood flooring.
Looking to start rent in early February.
Cheers!

Jemima, Female, 21yrs

Hello there :)
My names Jemima,
I am 21 and studying Fine Arts at Monash Caulfield and are working as a Host at Nobu Melbourne. I love music, cooking, art and my indoor plants are my babies. I am a vego but don't mind if you're not. Of course I look forward to fun social times in the house but also am fully aware of the need for personal space. I am clean and responsible when it comes to house duties and the sharing of shared goods in the house. I have been living independently for 3 years of so now, but still have not managed to accumulate much stuff - I have my herbs in pots that I love that will be coming with me but apart from that I don't have many appliances (no washing machine, fridge, dishwasher, TV). If you have any further questions don't hesitate to ask me :)

May, Couple, 43yrs

In short we are 43yo, have been happily married for 5 years with no plans for children, love coffee/food/wine and anything that involves all three, we enjoy movies, live music/shows (especially blues), bike riding, skiing, picnics, walks in parks/gardens and well, being outside generally.
We live a quiet lifestyle (i.e. we're not party goers apart from the occasional), but enjoy great conversation over a meal and glass of wine or sharing time in front of a movie with popcorn and treats.
Brian is a photographer and owned his own business in the USA for many years. Upon returning home for good though has been enjoying his other great passion - hospitality (because again, it involves coffee/food/wine). Although he's currently working in two establishments, next year he hopes to return to drumming up his photography business and adding Physics tutoring to the mix. He's also a massive cat lover, even though we sadly have no pets at this time and probably won't until we buy our own home.
May is a mobile dog groomer, so no guessing as to the animal she loves! It is based in the Caulfield/Caulfield South area, hence our desire to live in the region. She has a big blue dog grooming trailer that will need to be parked either on the property or at least have space to park it freely or with a permit on the street.
We are currently saving for a deposit on a home, but that is way off yet, so we're looking to meet flatmates who are mature, fun, respectful, responsible and willing to take in a married couple :) and if we click, are in for the long term.
If you would like to meet us or know more you can contact us via the message service, we would love to hear from you!
Brian and May Jenkin

Any more questions please feel free to hit me up and ask away!

Jasmine, Female, 20yrs

Apart from having traits you want in a housemate like being clean and tidy, washing up their dishes and making sure food in the fridge doesn't go mouldy etc, I've lived with lots of people before so i can adapt to different personality types and the different ways we all live ☺️ I'm a super busy person which means I'm not home a lot, I work both morning and night times, but I love to go out and relax with friends or unwind at home with a glass of wine and tv (food network is always a winner). I love to cook, but I'm from a big family so I believe home cooked meals are to be enjoyed together and time should be spent together.

Charlie, Couple, 22yrs

We are a couple of students who spend most of their days on placement. We cook a fair bit and are super happy to share food. We like to have a drink or two of an evening and go to bars or gigs on the weekend. We like sport - playing and watching, music and PETS - but we don't have any of our own at the moment. We have both lived in share houses for two years and are clean, easygoing and respectful. We are both med students, but don't judge us too hard for that :P Hope we suit what you're looking for!! (LGBTIQ friendly)
**We're willing to live in other suburbs close to the Frankston line
***Also we both have placements in the country, so for 2.5months there will only be one of us living there.

Caitlyn, Female, 20yrs

PLEASE READ WHOLE DESCRIPTION BEFORE MESSAGING
I've been renting for about a year now, and my time at my current home is coming to a close. Looking for a new home in the east/south east.
I am a casual stocktaker with a reliable income, and I work at various times on different days. I don't drive or own a car so I would prefer to be close to public transport.
I clean up after myself, am careful in my usage of home utilities and respect others' privacy and personal space, so I hope to expect the same from those I share with. I'm pretty quiet but happy to socialise, and I'm open to house events and the like.
In my free time, I tend to keep to myself as I'm a bit of an introvert. I like to play games, read, watch movies and learn things to cook. I don't often drink or go out, but I don't care if anyone else does.
I'm also non-vegan (don't mind if you are), non-smoker and am happy with LGBT+. I'd prefer to live with other non-smokers, and people who aren't fussed about my sexuality.
My boyfriend sometimes comes over for a visit, or to stay the night, and other nights I stay at his place (we work together so it depends). He is 21, quiet and respectful. We mostly keep to ourselves, playing games and watching stuff on my computer.
If there is anything you need to know, please feel free to message me. :)

Skyler, Female, 23yrs

hi I'm Skyler I am a 23 years old Chinese girl who study in Rmit in master of IT. I have a positive attitude to life and easy to be impressed, love trying new things and make new friends. I'm also clean, tidy and quiet.
I have shared with others in one room (4 ppl)for 4 years in my university, my roommates all became my close friends. I have traveled alone around China, so I am pretty independent. I also have been to Europe through couch surfing and host some couch surfers from all over the world in my house in China, I am really open minded and respectful.
I've been sharing for a house with an old lady in the past 5 months, we had great time together. I have to go back to China for Chinese new year. Hopefully there are someone who rent their room around 21st February 2017.
My interests are video games, traveling, painting, music, fitness, cooking, self-improving, and anything interesting. It would be great to team up with a nice roommate who has some same interests :D

Oguzhan, Male, 26yrs

I am doing a PhD at Monash University on how brain is developed and function. When I am not in the lab, I go for hike, play soccer, watch movies and TV series. I like to keep my environmet clean and that is what I'd expect from my future flatmates. I moved to Australia from Turkey 9 months ago and I have been living alone in a studio apartment in Prahran since then. Actually I enjoy that but it is soooo quiet and getting boring. I gotta admit that I missed hanging out with flatmates. Also I want to get closer to the university which is in Clayton.

Mark, Male, 34yrs

Easy-going, smart, funny, charming English guy - lived in shared houses for as long as I can remember and never had a problem anywhere. Will keep things relaxed, clean, tidy, will make you laugh, will make you tasty food (don't worry, I always clean up after myself)...
Moving to Melbourne to join a friend of mine in expanding his business (long-term) so expecting to work hard during the week and check the city out at the weekends.
